A young woman returning from her studies abroad X a passionate young man devoted to serving his country
Republican-era China X time loop
Jinyu owns a magical antique pocket watch. When she presses its button, she returns to the foot of a crabapple tree in Yunju Alley in 1939, where she meets the boy running toward her with a copy of New Youth in his hand.
She returns to the past again and again, but can only watch helplessly as he grows quieter and quieter.
Then the pocket watch breaks, time surges forward, and Jinyu becomes a medical expert, joining Lu Yanqing on a battlefield unknown to the world.
A lone boat never abandoned, with rivers and seas for company.
A life without regrets.
